The Hamilton Rangatahi Project is a collaborative, multi-year project between The Waikato Institute of Technology (Wintec) and Hamilton City Council (HCC). The aim of this project is to contribute to the on-going development and implementation of HCC’s Youth Action Plan through a number of research phases and outputs. The overarching theme of this research project is Hamilton Youth (both Māori and non-Māori).

The first phase of the Rangatahi Project is this annotated bibliography. The purpose of this document is to provide annotations – brief summaries – of evaluations, research reports, and other relevant literature related to youth in Hamilton, New Zealand.

The Rangatahi Research Team includes Anna Scanlen, Dave Snell, Tony Lorigan, Ihsana Ageel, Esmae McKenzie-Norton, and Shirley Rivers.
